If you want to see a real credit score, try buying a house if you forgot to pay your cellphone bill once six years ago.

"I'm sorry, asking what your credit score is makes your credit score drop 30 points. No, you're not allowed to see the algorithms we use to determine your credit score either."

I'm not going to complain that rednote is deprograming some burgerbrains but these are questions answered by a simple google search.

If they google it they're just going to get results from Fox News or WSJ or some other hitlerite news outlet telling them chyna is in fact 1984 tinyman square oppressing their citizens with social credit score.

when i search "does china have a social credit system?" the ai result says that it does lol

but honestly there's so much propaganda relating to that one, if you look at a glance at the non-ai results it still looks like they have it. plus americans think of it as a common sense thing to know so im not super surprised they would never think to google it

People won't believe this kind of stuff unless they ask it directly to another person.

honkies can't read or research things

they get all their positions from absorbing the vibes of those around them

[–] Yuritopiaposadism@hexbear.net 16 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

you expect burgerbrains to do their own research?

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 9 points 4 hours ago

It goes to show the level of propaganda and how effective it is on Treatlers that they can't even be bothered to google it.

How many days until the new American propaganda line becomes "all of these Chinese posters have to say these things to propagandize America" as if every single thing that happens on the planet is for Americans

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 13 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

T-Minus what 15 minutes maybe? They're just going to say these are Xi-Bots paid to make China look good. Your average anglo is too comfortable in their bubble of fart lies about CHYNA frothingfash

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 10 points 4 hours ago

I will say this does prove the US government line that Americans using Chinese apps is bad for national security. Hard to keep your population blinded by ridiculous propaganda when they can just see for themselves it's not true. So that's kind of ironic and funny.

I really hope this has lasting impact on USians, but I'm not holding my breath just yet.

I get the jist, but even though I haven't had to do any in years, man do I remember how much homework sucks ass

[–] Formerlyfarman@hexbear.net 4 points 3 hours ago

Yhea, as a kid, you already spend 7 hours at school, and the have to do Homework on top of that...

It's authoritarian to not let your kids drive you into bankruptcy buying skibidi toilet skins for their Fortnite avatar.
